GREAT OREGON COWS

CERTAIN PROMISE OF A GREAT
DAIRYING FUTURE FOR THIS STATE

"has the greatest Jersey cow in the
world Vive La France; of which

man: , Carlton, over In Yamhill county,
not far from Salem, has the four
greatest full sisters in all Jersey
cowdoui; also illustrated arjd de
frirbed in this issue.
Lulu Alphea of Ashburn, owned
by J. J. Van Kleek & Sons, Beaver
ton, Oregon, over in Washington
county, next to Yamhill, is far and
away the greatest cow In her class
of any breed in the wide world.
. Lulu was bred by J. M. Dickson &
Son. Linn county, joining Marion
county on the south.
She entered the test at the age of
1 year and 324 days, as a senior
yearling, and she- completed her
year's record with 800.08 pounds of
batterfat, or 13,668.47 pounds of
milk. - .
That Is the highest test in the
whole world of any cow-of any hreed
for her age.
It beats any other Jersey by 156.28
pounds of batterfat.
The world's champion In that class
that Lulu defeated is also a Marion
county cow. She is Silver Chimes
Gwendola, bred by Del. Perkins of
Carlton: and owned by F. A. Doerfler
of Silverton when she made the test
completed during the last Oregon
state fair, with a record of 643.8
pounds of butterfat; the highest for
any Jersey cow of her class up to
thai time, as was stated above.
The outstanding feature In con
nection with the glory of the Jer-
f ormacce of 'Lulu Alphea." of . Ash-J
burn Is the fact that she is in her
breeding a combination of the" two
leading Oregon strains of the Jersey
breed, producing the highest testing
Jersey cows in the wide world. She
has a combination of the St. Mawes
and the Golden Glow Chief strains.

carefully . - Milk Is a Safety Food. Dr. Mc
Collura calls milk a protective food
because it makes up for the defi
ciencies in other foods. Deficient
food from day to day causes lack of
nutrition. Food that does nt furnish
what the body needs will ultimately
cause disease and shorten the life.
That is why every mother and every
child should drink a quart of milk a
day, and every person not less than a
pint.
Milk Is Solid Food in Solution. It
is saturated with different kinds of
nourishment. Drink it slowly.

Do You Like Ice Cream? Ice

A MILK SURVEY F OR ALL THE LEAD
ING CITIKJF. OREGON 1
A milk survey Is being made In all . milk, giving programs and teaching
the larger cities and towns in Oregon.
Salem is to be included.
This work Is being done by the
Oregon Dairy Council, an educational
council "to further the use of milk
and dairy products. The work is pro
gressing rapidly and follow up work
is now being done by the parent
teacher!circb?s and clubs.
This survey was made In Portland
last May. through the courtesy of
Superintendent Grout, and it was
found that ovej 3702 children in the
grade schools, under 14 years of age.
were receivirig no milk.
The women's clubs and parent-
teacher circles have been spreading
the mothers the need of milk for
their growing children as well aa
using It In cooking, etc.. for the oth
er members of the family. Some
children who say they do not like
milk are being given, milk In a new
form. A little sugar or vanilla may
make a child like It. or it may be
used in cooking when a child will not
take milk to drink.
In most ot the rural districts, and
even in many districts where there
Is plenty of milk, the record showa
that over one-third of the children
do not drink milk.
Following is a psrtial report ot
the milk survey, compiled by Edith.
